2 AESSEAL - Company Overview AESSEAL is one of the leading global specialists in the design and manufacture of Mechanical Seals, Support Systems and Hermetic Bearing Protectors. Left: The AESSEAL Global Technology Centre is one of over 52 branches worldwide. Right: AESSEAL have 7 branches in the USA - 2 in Knoxville, Kingsport, Longview, Marion, Central Maine and Seneca Falls. The Problem with Lip Seals - What is the TRUE Cost? Why is it that the least expensive component causes the biggest headaches? Lip Seals often have a short effective lifespan. We use Lip Seals, despite the known problems, because we ignore the costs of shaft wear and premature bearing and equipment failure. The LabTecta was designed to outperform Lip Seals and be inexpensive to repair. PUMP MOTOR SHAFT BEARING LIP SEAL The Lip Seal Water Ingress Test Results A water jet was applied at 13.3 m/s (2616 ft/min) in two separate tests to a 100mm (4.000 ) Lip Seal at 382 rpm and 1910 rpm. Both tests were abandoned after an average of 3 hours due to the visual level of water in the housing. The housing oil was then analysed for percentage water contamination. The Lip Seal test results, from a 3rd party laboratory showed 83% (830,000 ppm) and > 99% (990,000 ppm) water contamination of the oil. Lip Seal Test Certificates. Lip Seal test: Oil sample bottles for laboratory analysis. Test Results Conclusion - A single acting Lip Seal cannot prevent forced water contamination. Limitations of Lip Seals Lip Seals are ineffective at keeping contamination from bearing housings. Lip Seals can seriously wear shafts, causing extensive equipment damage and added cost. When Lip Seals leak, loss of lubrication causes catastrophic bearing and equipment failure. From research done by a major academic institution water contamination as low as 0.002% (20 ppm) can reduce bearing life in some oils by as much as 48%. API610 9th edition, Section recognizes this and states that Lip-type Seals shall not be used in centrifugal pumps.

3 LabTecta - Designed to be easily & economically repaired With most competitor labyrinth designs the whole unit must be removed if it needs to be repaired. This means the as designed interference fit between the housing and the pump is damaged each time during removal. This can make the re-use of a labyrinth seal impossible because the close fit has been destroyed. By design, the outer housing of the AESSEAL components are replaced, as shown below. LabTecta can be left inside the bearing housing while its internal Step 1 - Remove Face Shield Step 2 - Remove External Components of LabTecta Step 3 - Replace Internal Components Step 4 - Re-Install New External Components Step 5 - Re-Install Face Shield REPAIR YOUR LABTECTA WITHOUT REMOVING IT FROM THE EQUIPMENT HOUSING IN 5 EASY STEPS! DESIGNED TO MAKE LIP SEALS OBSOLETE LabTecta - No need for shaft refurbishment REPLACING SHAFTS COSTS MONEY Eliminate Shaft Refurbishment Costs The LabTecta Fits in the same space as a Lip Seal. Shaft damage from Lip Seals. However, the LabTecta rotary elastomers are designed to sit on a shaft surface which was not previously damaged by a previous Lip Seal installation. This means that the customer shaft should not need to be replaced or refurbished when upgrading from a Lip Seal to a LabTecta bearing protector, thereby saving cost. Groove in shaft from Lip seals LabTecta rotary seal position The twin rotary O-Ring design avoids worn Lip Seal grooves. Shaft damage from a Labyrinth Seal.

4 The LabTecta Water Contamination Test Results In over 30 separate tests a 13.3 m/s (2616 ft/min) water jet was directed at the LabTecta in a wide range of shaft sizes and operating speeds. At 332 rpm the post test results of a 100mm (4.000 ) LabTecta showed 3 parts per million (3 ppm) water contamination. At 1910 rpm the results showed 0 ppm water contamination. Conclusion - A LabTecta can and does prevent forced water contamination. The LabTecta also has excellent performance on Grease lubrication and Dry running conditions. LabTecta 45mm (1.750 ) LabTecta Water Contamination Test Results. Oil Splash Chamber Water Jet Chamber LabTecta LabTecta - A fundamentally superior bearing protector... The Laws of Economics tell us that maintenance costs are directly proportional to the number of replaceable parts, the simplicity of construction of these parts, the tools required to disassemble the parts and the time it takes to perform the component replacement task. The LabTecta is field repairable in three (3) minutes for the cost of two O-Rings and one face shield. No special disassembly tools are required just one small conventional screwdriver and/or an O-Ring extraction tool. NO CHEMICALS NEEDED FOR REPAIR NO TORCHES/HEAT NEEDED FOR REPAIR NO PRESS/SPECIAL TOOLS NEEDED FOR REPAIR

5 IEEE Std Bearing Protection When you fit LabTectas to your motors, you keep your motor clean, rotating and IP55 rated. Non contacting Seal LabTecta Ingress protection to IP55 Easy to refurbish Safe - Non sparking Low cost No shaft wear The LabTecta is Independently certified to IP55 which is the Ingress Protection requirement for IEEE Std If the premium centrifugal pump standard, API th Edition, Section dictates that Lip Seals shall not be used in such rotating equipment... why do some Electric Motors manufacturers continue to use Lip Seals as the same issues apply? Babylonian Terrace system - Designed to keep CONTAMINANTS OUT External contaminants would have a tough time getting past the multi-tiered terraces designed into the LabTecta. Shaft There is a cascading effect and any water getting past the face shield is likely to be expelled in one of the two expulsion spaces. Like the famous hanging gardens of Babylon, these cascading segments are ingenious, dependable, and highly functional. THE LABTECTA IS GUARANTEED TO LAST 3 TIMES LONGER THAN A CONVENTIONAL LIP SEAL Housing 2nd outlet 1st outlet Water Spray/Moisture Reliable Technology confirmed by rigorous testing and independent laboratory analysis

6 LabTecta - Designed to comply with the Laws of Physics, Probability, Economics & Murphy Twin Rotary Drive Murphy s Law dictates, if it can go wrong, it will go wrong. The LabTecta s Twin Rotary Drive construction means that the rotating O-Rings have twice the normal probability of fitting onto a clean and smooth shaft surface. The elegant but ingenious simplicity of the LabTecta is an outstanding example of innovation, pushing forward the frontiers of seal design to overcome the problems and performance of traditional lip seals. Dr. Michael Harrison, MA, D.Phil President of the Chartered Institute of Patent Agents. Furthermore, the twin rotary drive system provides 100% more drive integrity and optimizes the rotary stability during dynamic operation. This added stability must be considered essential when operating close-proximity labyrinth stator and rotor components. The Arknian shut off valve The Arknian shut-off valve has an axial energizing member, which automatically adjusts the contact force on the primary shut-off valve. This contact force varies when the equipment is operating or idle. In operation a micro lift gap develops. At idle a static seal is formed. The shut-off valve member is manufactured from a wear-resistant material with low coefficient of friction. This unique Arknian arrangement prevents moisture particles from being sucked back into the oil during cycles of bearing chamber breathing. The Laws of Physics dictate that ALL contacting, counterrotating components will wear. To minimize wear we need: Shaft Not Rotating Shaft Rotating Abrasion-resistant contacting materials with a low coefficient of friction. Static Seal Self-adjusting contact force, depending on the shaft velocity....exactly what the LabTecta provides. Atmosphere Micro lift gap Atmosphere Zenith Barrier - Designed to keep OIL IN In dynamic shaft operation, the oil in the bearing housing must provide splash-lubrication for the equipment bearings. Most of the oil entering the LabTecta s velocity-reducing stator cavity is expelled through the stator expulsion orifice. However, the Laws of Probability make it likely that some oil will get past this first cavity. As the oil particles now travel axially along the shaft, they are subject to centrifugal radial forces from the rotating shaft. The radially accelerating oil particles are forced to contact the inclined stator surface and will move counter-axially towards the stator shoulder. The stator and shaft geometries and their relative proximity create a standing vortex. This standing vortex acts as an essential second physical barrier that prevents further oil egress.

7 Protecting Electric Motor Integrity The Electric Motor is the most popular piece of rotating equipment in the world today. Without reliable electric motors, loss of plant production and increased downtime hits company profits hard. Two of the main factors in motor malfunction are: 1. Failure of the bearings causing seizure of the equipment. 2. Liquid contamination causing electrical shorting. Not only can these cause damage to the motor windings and possible damage to the driven equipment, liquid ingress can be hazardous. Risk of electrocution may be present. How are these risks reduced? Like pumps, the first issue to address is prevention of premature bearing failure from contamination in the bearing chamber. The traditional contamination prevention method employed in Electric Motors are Lip Seals. We know that Lip Seals will not prevent water ingress, as described earlier. However, like pumps, Lip Seals also damage motor shafts during dynamic operation escalating refurbishment costs. The second issue of concern is that of plant safety as water and electricity do not mix. The level of protection is dictated by an internationally recognized ingress protection (IP) standard as shown below. If an Electric Motor with Lip Seals fitted is IP55 rated when it is shipped from the factory, is it still IP55 qualified after it has run 100, 250 or 1000 hours given that we know ALL Lip Seals WEAR? IP55 - Ingress (contamination) Protection for electrical equipment IP rating stands for Ingress Protection. An IP number, such as 55, is used to specify the sealing effectiveness of enclosures against the intrusion of foreign bodies (i.e. tools, dust, and moisture). IEEE Std Ingress protection IP55 Dust out Requires IP55 Ingress Protection and the use of a noncontactingwhile-rotating device like the LabTecta. Water out 1st digit: Protection against foreign objects 2nd digit: Protection against water Provide a degree of protection against the following environmental conditions: Provide a degree of protection against the following environmental conditions: No protection Protection against solid objects up to 50mm (1.968 ) e.g. accidental touch by hands Protected against solid objects up to 12mm (0.472 ) e.g. fingers Protected against solid objects over 2.5mm (0.098 ) e.g. tools Protected against solid objects over 1mm (0.039 ) e.g. wires Protected against dust- limited ingress (no harmful deposit) No protection Protected against vertically falling drops of water Protected against direct sprays of water up to 15º from the vertical Protected against sprays to 60º from the vertical Protected against water sprayed from all directions - limited ingress permitted Protected against low pressure jets of water from all directions- limited ingress permitted No contacting Lip Seal can conform to IEEE Std

10 MagTecta - a bearing sealing revolution The LabTecta is a non-contacting Labyrinth Bearing Protector ideally suited for high shaft speed or marginal lubrication applications. The LabTecta's sister products, the MagTecta and MagTecta-II, are contacting dual magnetic bearing seals which will seal the bearing chamber. The patent pending MagTecta range is offered with proper mechanical seal faces manufactured from blister resistant carbon and solid tungsten carbide - exactly the materials you would select for sealing oil. The dual design ensures ultimate protection in all types of applications including vertically oriented, flooded oil level, water hose down and the prevention of debris ingress. In short, LabTecta is designed to outperform a Lip Seal. The MagTecta range is a further innovative step for those who want a proper seal.
